How to Make Banana Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups rolled oats, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
  3. Add ½ cup chocolate chips to the dry ingredients and mix gently to combine.
  4. In a separate bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas until smooth but not completely liquid.
  5. Add ½ cup Smart Balance 50/50 butter blend (softened), 1 cup milk (or milk alternative), 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix until well combined.
  6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Fold in the remaining ½ cup chocolate chips.
  8. Fill the muffin cups ¾ full.
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Rotate the muffin tin halfway through baking for even cooking.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
